Dapi Sauerkraut Cultural Museum Introduction
The exclusive salty and sour aroma of Dapi! Dapi's sauerkraut is renowned for using only salt as a seasoning, making it the top in Taiwan in terms of planting area and production. The Sauerkraut Cultural Center introduces the history and cultural characteristics of sauerkraut in Dapi Township and hosts a unique Sauerkraut Festival every winter. The Cultural Center plans to collect information on representative local agricultural products from Dapi, focusing on mustard greens (the main ingredient for making sauerkraut), complemented by orchids, rice, and other crops, showcasing various farming tools and equipment used in the cultivation of these products. It will also collaborate with village offices and community development committees to organize local historical and cultural materials from the Dapi area and establish designated display areas; at the same time, a committee will be formed to train volunteers and guides, thus promoting the cultural industry of the Sauerkraut Center and ensuring its sustainable operation. The Sauerkraut Local Cultural Center is an aroma experience facility, where the exhibits allow visitors to personally experience the distinct smells at every step of the sauerkraut-making process. The themes and audiovisual equipment within the center revolve around Dapi, making it a uniquely tailored local cultural center aimed at marketing the area's distinctive features. Every year, the "Sauerkraut Cultural Festival" is held, allowing adults and children alike to come and experience the fun of making sauerkraut.
